Summary
The applicant proposes to knock down an outbuilding at the back of the property and build a single storey extension. The council papers describe this as being needed for disabled adaptation, so it is likely to help someone in the home get around more easily. The house sits close to Glyn Rhosyn, a care home about a couple of minutes' walk away, and both Holywell High School and Mill Field School are a few minutes' walk away too. The property is also near a busier road that carries a steady flow of traffic, including some larger vehicles. Most neighbouring homes cannot see directly into the back of this property, because other buildings block the view. Only a couple of nearby homes, to the south and south-east, could have a clearer line of sight during and after the work.
What you can do
You can comment on this application by contacting Flintshire Council and quoting reference FUL/000243/26. The council can only weigh up planning matters, such as the size, appearance and effect on neighbours of the extension, not personal circumstances of the applicant. Comments are normally accepted until the council reaches a decision.
